Provectus review

A fixed fee first week, outcome priced running, and the code handed over at go live.

Verdict

Provectus is the one firm on this list that tells you how the money works before the call. Its home page sets out three phases: a one week Sprint at a fixed fee that measures your current baseline and writes the cost benefit, an 8 to 14 week Enable phase priced by milestone, and a Realize phase whose fees track outcomes against that baseline, with a quarterly review that "proves the value or ends the engagement". It also commits in writing to hand over every line of code and every architecture document on the day the system goes live.

What customers praise

A staged offer with the exit built in, a code and documents handover on day one of go live, and named insurance clients: Convex for underwriting document review (100x more risk reports triaged) and Johnson Lambert for audit work on Amazon Bedrock.

What customers criticise

No dollar amount appears on the pages read, so the fixed fee is fixed but unknown until the call. The client figures carry no published method, and the named work leans to insurance, financial services and life sciences. A company in another industry should ask for a case in its own.

Best for

A US company of 100 to 1,000 people with a live AI use case, such as underwriting, audit or document review, that wants it built into production, measured against a baseline and handed over with the code.
